Happy Independence Day!

LANSING, Mich. — Southwest Michigan families and tourists looking for information on local fireworks shows this weekend can visit Sen. John Proos’ website for a complete list.

“Independence Day is a joyous time to celebrate our freedoms, honor our country and remember the declaration more than two centuries ago that changed the world,” said Proos, R-St. Joseph. “I encourage everyone to have a fun and safe Independence Day as we celebrate America’s birthday. Seeing the fireworks on the Fourth of July weekend is about as American as apple pie, and I am proud to offer residents a list of all the local fireworks shows.”
